Symbol room.

At this time, it was noon, the sun was soft in late winter and early spring, crumpled on the desk through the window, and the glass of boiled water on the desk was quiet without a trace of ripples.

Chen Ping sat at the desk, picked up the water glass, took a sip of water, and put it down.

Open the "Introduction to Ten Common Talismans in the Qi Refining Period" and read it again.

This book records the ten most common ways to draw talismans during the Qi refining period.

Namely: cleaning charms, fire charms, wind listening charms, auspicious charms, wind protection charms, sword avoidance charms, evil charm charms, body talismans, evil charm charms, meditation charms.

Thereinto.

Cleaning talismans are the simplest talismans, and they don't need to use talisman skins or talisman paper.

Entry-level talismans.

What Chen Ping wants to draw at the moment is a cleaning charm.

He sat down solemnly and recited the incantation he had written.

Then he held his breath and concentrated for a moment, picked up the talisman, dipped it in the rune ink, and rotated the tip of the pen at the mouth of the bottle and brushed it twice, scraping off the excess rune ink. Then, on the paved rune paper, follow the runes one by one.

Runes are several flattened hieroglyphs composed vertically and superimposed on top of each other to form a large rune with long vertical bars.

Chen Ping didn't recognize what the meaning was.

Just take a picture.

... The first painting is to the left with an apostrophe, and the right is written with three horizontal hooks, such as the breeze Fushan Gang. Vertical from the center to the bottom, and turn in a circle along the pen. First two circles on the left, then two circles on the right, then and below...

"Poof!"

Before the rune was finished, the rune ink went off the fire, and a flame burst out of the rune paper.

Chen Ping hurriedly slapped away the flames and exhaled.

'It's hard to control spiritual power. ’

'The stroke movement is also not easy to control. ’

According to the book, there are many don'ts to give: the strokes should not be too sharp, nor too soft. The strokes should not be too dense or too sparse. Spiritual power should not be input too fast and too strong, and it should not be too slow or too light...'

Too much 'undesirable'.

But that's the problem.

What do you mean by 'not too sharp, not too soft'? There is no such degree, and there is no experience commentary from predecessors at all, so it is all up to you to explore.

That's where the difficulty lies.

It's very hard to grasp.

I had to try again and again. Maybe the blind cat touched the mouse to death, maybe it succeeded by accident, maybe it was just like that. ’

Chen straightened up, took a deep breath, picked up the pen and continued to try.

Moments later,

"Poof!"

again

This time, I finished drawing it all, but the runes didn't react at all, as if some useless words had been written on scrap paper.

Go on...

"Shhh

A puff of green smoke without flames came out.

Again...

“......”

Two hours later, I got up and moved.

Still haven't been able to get started.

There are so many tricks in this that it's not easy to grasp the scale by relying solely on dry words.

This is not just a simple writing, every stroke and stroke is a medium to receive the laws of the Heavenly Dao, and initially achieve a certain 'celestial and human induction' to gather the laws.

There are many doorways in it.

'Isn't it?' ’

'Is the mantra not recited reverently enough?' ’

Chen Ping was dumbfounded, and sorted out his appearance quite solemnly, pulled Zou Zi on the placket, and then sat upright on the placket, chanting the mantra:

"Heaven and earth are natural, the dust is scattered, the cave is mysterious, and the sun is too yuan. Lingbao talisman, make me ...... naturally"

Draw talismans while it's hot.

"Poof!"

Chen Ping: ......

Forget it, that's all for today.

I can't grasp the mystery for a moment.

I can only take my time.

Fortunately, the price of rune skin has also doubled in price now, and based on superb rune skin skills, you can make a lot of money just by selling rune skin.

Thinking of this, he picked up the talisman tool and took it into a skin.

Cutting, cutting, lifting, pulling, filling, mending...

The action is done in one go.

A superb talisman in hand...

No, the spirit stone is in hand.

Chen Ping put his hands behind his head and breathed, suddenly feeling that the depression accumulated in his heart due to the drawing of the talisman was empty, and the whole person was refreshed.

It's still money that makes people feel the most.

......

Evening.

Chen Ping was holding a big bowl of Haikou and was sitting in the courtyard eating slowly when Zhang Zheng came.

According to Zhang Zheng's own words, he walked here unconsciously after a walk, so he came to see his old friend Chen Ping.

... How did you come this way unknowingly? Are you interested in visiting an old customer? ... Chen Ping knew it in his heart.

"Chen Daoyou, how has Fu Pi learned recently?" After some greetings, Zhang Zheng pretended to be casual and asked.

Chen Ping smiled:

"I have refined a little, and some time ago I went to the fang market to sell some talisman skins. How did Zhang Daoyou learn? ”

"And so it is." Zhang Zheng sighed: "It's just that some small points are still difficult to control, but I can't learn anymore, so I can only slowly explore them by myself." ”

Qi Jianglun is dead, what else to learn.

"Situ Shan's thing... Didn't bother you later, did you? Since this topic was mentioned, Chen Ping asked.

"Hey, don't mention it. I was so unlucky, I was interrogated by the city guards every day during that time. If it weren't for the beast tide, I'm afraid my life would not be easy. Zhang Zheng was afraid for a while when he said this, and finally said softly:

"Don't hide it from Chen Daoyou, every time I think about it later, I feel that something is wrong, I am not familiar with Situ Shan, and I don't have a deep relationship. But for some reason, every time he came, I went out of my way to explore the art of making talisman skins with him. It's weird. ... Hey, that's it, that's it, it's all over. ”

Zhang Zheng waved his hand for a while.

Chen Ping's heart was stagnant.

I remember that when I first met Situ Shan at Zhang Zheng's house, I also had a feeling that something was wrong.

Later, there were also such doubts.

Now, it seems, it's not just yourself. Zhang Zheng felt the same way after realizing it.

Could it be that Situ Shan used some kind of means?

Unfortunately, many things cannot be confirmed anymore.

Fortunately, he killed Situ Shan decisively, otherwise I don't know what huge long-term risks there would be.

The two chatted for a while, but Zhang Zheng had no intention of saying goodbye, as if he wanted to say something but was embarrassed to speak.

"Zhang Daoyou still has something?" Chen Ping smiled.

"No, no, hehe." Zhang Zheng smiled with a dodgy gaze, and said hesitantly: "... Chen Daoyou, how many talisman skins can you make in a day? ”

How could Chen Ping not know what he wanted to express.

It's been a long time since I've bought skins from him.

Adult skin is not the same as runic skin.

The talisman skin is very easy to sell because there is a threshold for technology, and many people can't learn it if they want to.

But the finished skin is different, there is no technical content, many people can do it, and now it is difficult to make money in Lianyun City, and many people have picked up this job again.

So the competition is not small.

It is possible to sell it in the market, but it usually takes a lot of time to sell some.

There are also potential risks over time.

How can a leather maker like one-to-one selling to Chen Ping be reliable?

Chen Ping smiled:

"I've been making fewer talisman skins recently, and there are still more than 100 pieces of finished skins left from the ones I bought before, and they can be used for a while. I'll buy it from you when it's out of it. ”

Less?

Zhang Zheng was surprised:

"So, what do you make money on?"

He thought to himself that if his success rate was not too low, he would be eager to make talisman skins every day.

"It's also a talisman, but I don't do that much, five or six a day, and the income can barely get by. You have to leave some time to practice. Chen Ping said indifferently.

This was said easily, but the corners of Zhang Zheng's mouth twitched.

Just barely able to get by?

Zhang Zheng looked at Chen Ping, who was wearing a medium-grade robe...

All I eat is spiritual rice and demon beast meat. During this period of time, the price of spiritual rice has skyrocketed, and he has been eating melons, fruits and vegetables intermittently.

Repair the house out of your own pocket.

Is this called barely getting by?

... Wait a minute.

Five or six talisman skins a day?

Thinking that Chen Ping said that there are more than 100 pieces of finished skins left, he roughly estimated the length of time from the last time he bought the finished skins to the present.

This...

I'm afraid that a single skin can output 3 rune skins.

'Shhh ’

Zhang Zheng gasped.

Thinking that the quality of Chen Ping's talisman skin was already very good a few months ago, I am afraid that the quality will only be more extraordinary after a few months.

He was happy for his 'client', but at the same time he felt extremely tight.

"Hehe, it's good, it's good. You can't do all the talismans, so it's good to spend more time cultivating. Zhang Zheng smiled awkwardly.

chatted a few more words, but Zhang Zheng became more and more stateless the more he talked.

He hurriedly said goodbye.

On the way back, Zhang Zheng thought that he had learned talisman leather with Chen Ping, and it was the second time he went to learn it, and Chen Ping was the first time.

I never thought that a few months had passed, and Chen Ping had thrown himself far away.

Fortunately, Chen Daoyou's cultivation realm is low, so he has only practiced qi by one level. Zhang Zheng thought so, and his heart was a little more balanced.

... Chen Ping is not an all-round genius.

At least the cultivation is not as high as mine, and I am three floors.

... Hehe.
